Real-Time Control for Extrusion Welding Operations

Running extrusion welding means handling fabrication and on-site seaming of thermoplastics: geomembranes (HDPE/PP/PVC), HDPE pipe tie-ins, tank/duct repairs, liners, and roof/floor membranes — often under weather, access, and QA constraints. Teams need live visibility of who’s on-site, which seams or joints are in scope, what materials are issued, and where work is slipping. That’s why Shifton delivers a field service platform built for Extrusion Welding — clear statuses, accurate assignments, and clean handoffs between coordinators, QA, and field technicians.

This extrusion-ready Field Service solution routes work orders, assigns the right welder to the right material and joint type, and tracks progress, time on-site, photos, and sign-offs in real time. Whether you’re fabricating in the shop or welding liners in the field, Shifton keeps tasks organized, auditable, and out of messy chats.

With Shifton, contractors reduce rework, keep QA records in one place (logs, photos, sign-offs), and provide proof-of-work to clients and inspectors. You get operational control across projects and cleaner documentation without endless calls.
